I think I found the problem.  The version of DBD-Pg I had installed was
for perl 5.005.  The version of perl installed was 5.6.0 (i386), the
version of PostgreSQL was 7.1 (i686).  Perl wasn't finding the module
because the i686-linux directories weren't in perl's search path.
   I'm down loading the perl RPM and will compile perl for the i686
platform and see how that works with the PostgreSQL i686 DBD-Pg driver.

Actually the 'almost' latest (1.0 verses 1.01) is included in the
PostgreSQL distribution.
